What are the benefits of fearing walking in the fear of God? II

ByPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 3 minutes

I greet you all in the precious name of our Lord Jesus Christ!
I thank God for yet another day to soak our life with the word of God. We have been talking for some time now about the fear of God. Yesterday we saw some of the benefits of walking in the fear of God. Today I want to share more scriptures on the benefits of walking in the fear of God. This is to allow you to see that walking in the fear of God affects every area of our lives. Without the fear of God in a person’s life, he is headed for a defeated and wretched life.
Here are some other benefits of fearing God:

  • God arranges for you to own property: 

“But the midwives feared God, and did not as the king of Egypt commanded them, but saved the men children alive. And it came to pass, because the midwives feared
God, that he made them houses” (Exodus 1:17,21)

  • Walking in the fear of God leads to your promotion in career 

”That I gave my brother Hanani, and Hananiah the ruler of the palace, charge over Jerusalem: for he was a faithful man, and feared God above many” Nehemiah 7:2

  • Walking in the fear of God releases the goodness of God over your life in a city and protects you! 

“Oh how great is thy goodness, which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee, which thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee before the sons of men! Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy presence from the pride of man; thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues. Blessed be the LORD: for he hath showed me his marvelous kindness in a strong city” Psalm 31:19-21

  • Walking in the fear of God guarantees your provision in famine

“There is no king saved by the multitude of a host: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength. A horse is a vain thing for safety: neither shall he deliver any by his great strength. Behold, the eye of the LORD is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy, to deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine” (Psalm 33: 16-19)
“O fear the LORD, ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him” Psalm 34:9

  • Walking in the fear of God guarantees answers to your prayers 

“He will fulfill the desire of them that fear him: He also will hear their cry, and will save them. Psalm 145:19 

May the benefits of walking in the fear of God become more real to you from this day onward in Jesus Name!

Till tomorrow,
Pastor Rufus Ajiboye

    Today I would like to complete our discussion about searching for a goal of our life, and how we can find true happiness under the sun. We observed Solomon who measured long and burdensome way looking for his happiness and satisfaction.Thanks God for having it written for us, so that we can avoid the mistakes Solomon mentions in the book of Proverbs. Solomon has understood that life without God is an absolute illusion, but happiness without God is a mirage. This is what he writes as a conclusion to his book:«This is the end of the matter. All has been heard. Fear God, and keep his commandments; for this is the whole duty of man. For God will bring every work into judgement, with every hidden thing, whether it is good, or whether it is evil.» (Ecclesiastes 12:13-14).

Every serious revival has started with people’s heartfelt cry directed to God.

    Having repented your sins you are granted resurrected life, while life abundant is still hidden in God. You need the life abundant here, on this Earth. However, to have such life here on Earth we have to learn how to bring our heavenly possession on Earth. We have to have victorious life no matter what we do. Time we spend in fellowship with God is time when our resurrected life is being converted into life abundant.

  • Praying is pouring out your heart before God

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 4 minutes
    When I pray I pour out my soul before God. I will not dwell on it for long, because we mostly know how to do it. We know how to open our hearts. As soon as we find a listening ear and as soon as we find a person we can trust, we open our hearts. We know that God is always ready to hear us out. Besides, God is totally trustworthy. It means that you can boldly come before God with everything that concerns us. That is what we call prayer. And that is why Paul says that we shouldn’t think and worry too much, but always reveal our desires before God in prayer and then His peace will fill our hearts.

    Let’s try to find the answer to that question today.The Bible declares that faith comes from hearing God’s Word (Rom.10:17). So if you want your faith to grow, my advice to you is this– continue to listen to Gods word and fill your heart and mind with it.At the same time be ready for your faith to be tested. You cannot find out if your faith is growing without examination. Problems and trials are tests of your faith.
